Currently Known Exoplanets

Here is a list on the number of confirmed and unconfirmed exoplanets according to the main exoplanet databases. Not all of them list the same number of objects or data depending on their criteria and scope. The PHL' Exoplanets Catalog uses the Extrasolar Planet Encyclopedia with many corrections and additions from other sources.

(1) Confirmed exoplanets are those listed by the Extrasolar Planets Encyclopedia plus any corrections and updates.(2) NASA Kepler Mission exoplanet candidates are those as listed by the NASA Exoplanet Archive.(3) Number of potentially habitable exoplanets includes some still unconfirmed.(4) Objects of interest for habitable exomoons are predicted from planetary dynamics, but none observed yet.
